Alright everyone - I've been playing about 2 years and I REALLY SUCK at fast alternate picking. Therefore, I'm cruising along on a lesson like this and then I just stop on the last part.
Any advice? I'm sure practice is part of it, but practice what? Are there Drills? Something that is managable at first and then I can speed up?
HELP!!! 
Muris Varajic24th January 2008Great picking,octaves,everything!
David Wallimann24th January 2008Very nice and totally in style. Great job man.

Hello GMC! This lesson is a rock solo that starts in E major key and then it modulates to C# minor key that is the relative minor of E major. I composed this solo for my band’s version of Green Day’s song Good Riddance. We created a punk rock version of this nice ballad to play it live and we decided to add this rock solo.
I think that this lesson will be interesting because we’ll use different rock licks in pentatonic minor scale, alternate picking technique, octave chords and modulation.
You’ll find the backing track chords in red colour on screen.
Tempo: 200 bpm
Bye,
Gabriel.-
